Biotin-Actin (alpha-cardiac actin, bovine ) 2x100µg

Protein

Biotin-Actin

Origin

Cardiac muscle alpha actin, bovine

Molecular mass

43kDa

Protein description

Biotin-Actin from cardiac muscle is chemically modified α-actin by esterification of lysine residues with biotin. The advantage of Biotin-Actin from Hypermol is, that it is equipped  with a ~20 Å spacer, which renders the Biotin group to be readily available for antibody detection in  all suitable techniques (ELISA, Western Blotting etc.)..  

Conjugation ratio

The degree of labelling (DOL) of Biotin-Actin is approx. 1.

Form

Lyophilized, ready-to-use.

Quantity per unit

2x100 µg

Buffer

2mM Tris-Cl pH 8.2, 0.4mM ATP, 0.5mM DTT, 0.1mM CaCl2, 1mM NaN3 and 0.3% disaccharides, when reconstituted with 100 µl ultrapure water to obtain a 1mg/ml solution.

Purity

>99% by scanning densitometry.

Purification notes

Purified by GPC from bovine cardiac muscle.
